"The place is magical, right on the water, with a beautiful coral reef teeming with fish below for snorkeling. There's a small kayak for you to use; I used it to watch the sunset and it was beautiful. My wife loved this place. It's quiet, with a very peaceful vibe. It's about a 15-minute boat ride to get there. The owner, Philip, was very attentive and kind. This place definitely has a beautiful vibe; highly recommended."

Top La Gruta Hotel Reviews

Palmar Beach Lodge

8/10 Good

"Loved staying here. It’s middle of the jungle! Staff is amazing! Make huge difference! I think they need to do more activities, haber more options to eat as it’s in a island and to get more options you need to go to town. and improve WiFi connection."

Cosmic Crab Resort

10/10 Excellent

"I have been traveling to Cosmic Crab for 9 years. It is one of my favorite places. The resort has a rustic Caribbean vibe with one of the best sunset views in Bocas. The pool is lovely. The restaurant has delicious food. I recommend the fresh fish dishes, burgers, and pizza. The bloody Mary's and margaritas are fabulous. The staff is friendly and helpful. Sometimes they host special events like a mosaic art workshop. They are now a Filthy Friday stop, also. You are just a quick boat ride from the main island."

Bocas Paradise Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"We really enjoyed our stay; I think it's one of the best hotels in Bocas del Toro. Why? It's just a 10-minute walk from the airport. It is 100% clean. Friendly and helpful staff. The air-conditioning in the room works perfectly well. Boats to go to other islands/trip are next to the hotel and some can pick/drop you up at the back of the hotel. Nice restaurant, comfort and views. Then, across the street, there is a very cheap restaurant to have breakfast or something cheaper to eat. Shops nearby as well. The only negative point is that from Thursday to Saturday night the nightclub next to it, has very loud music. So, either you joint the party or book the hotel Sunday to Wednesday. The hotel provided earplugs, but... it's loud."

Koko Acqua Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"Nice place on the other side of Bocas town but all is within walking distance in Bocas. We walked everywhere. Stores, restaurants, and beach all nearby. Would stay there again. Go to Chikita Beach and on the opposite side of the road there is a little path (paved) that goes to the hotel (half-minute walk). You can't see it from the road but it's there. Quite nice."
